    Caboclo was .... Wow. Even Hartenstein somehow picking up 4 fouls in 5 minutes wasn't worse.

    I think caboclo blessing & curse is that he's athletic enough to get himself into a good spot and then dribble the ball into the stands or whatever

    Lol did you see Hartenstein pick up 4 fouls in 5 minutes of garbage time?

    I'm going to say Westbrook trade, which cost us draft picks, GM, coach, probably franchise player, whole era, may be slightly worse than getting rid of backup fringe C

    I know exactly why they made the Westbrook trade... and under the circumstances, I probably would have folded and agreed as well. Westbrook was bad. Hartenstein was dumb.

    Hartenstein seems like a bizarre irrational move, like Morey told himself "we're short now, so get rid of anyone that isnt' short". I truly feel like Morey just went braindead. Also, I've seen enough of Hartenstein to draw conclusions outside of 9 minutes tonight.

    IHart was nothing more than a LTS move. Those are moves forced by a dumbass owner. That was the point of dropping him before his deal became guaranteed.

    For the record, I only became fixated after the Clemens injury :)

    I used to think Bruno was player that only need playing time to be successful. His play has lead me to think if I never see him again I’m okay with that. He is no longer worth my interest or the 15 spot on our squad. I truly liked him and his story, I enjoyed watching him in the G league. After what he has shown this season I am no longer a fan of him. I thank him for his service; but he needs to stop dressing out for games because if he plays we will not be competitive. Going down to the commentary for food no longer needs an explanation because this man is lost most of the time. Sorry but we should be done with him. I was wrong to campaign for him for years now. Just wrong.

    I remember hearing that Stein was cut as a favor to him.


    Also, cut Bruno and sign Gerald Green.

    Bruno NBA ready?
    Nope- he ain't!

    If Morey loved him so much, trade for him dammit!

    I don't need to see Bruno play anymore to know he'll never be a good NBA player. I saw enough of him a few years back when his name was Hasheem Thabeet.

    May have been the first time I have seen an NBA player at half court lose control of his dribble with no pressure and the ball goes out.

    Such talent

    Man I had hope for Bruno, but it ain’t happening. He just looks like someone who’s playing the game cause someone told him he’d be good at it.
